Reedy Zappers DR 6600mAh SQ Competition HV-LiPo Drag Battery
|
February 24, 2022
Reedy Zappers DR 6600mAh SQ-configuration batteries are in stock and ready to ship! The SQ, or "square" configuration was the brainchild of the Reedy engineering team as a superior alternative to saddle packs. While the design ran out of favor in the 1:10 off-road racing world, it shines in the drag racing world thanks to its low center of gravity and wide footprint, which provide excellent stability without sacrificing performance.
Available now. (Pictured: #27378 Zappers DR HV-LiPo 6600mAh 130C 7.6V SQ.)

RC Glossary, Anti-roll bar, Sway Bar
Anti-roll bars are used to stabilize a vehicle from excessive chassis roll (such as when a buggy leans through the turns by centrifugal force).
On a high-traction surface, a vehicle not using anti-roll bars will tend to have a lot of chassis roll, which results in the vehicle being less responsive.
Adding anti-roll bars (or making them thicker if you already have them on) will help minimize the chassis roll, making the vehicle more responsive in cornering, and at the same time making it more stable.
Anti-roll bars can also help balance the pressure between the front and rear. If your car is oversteering, consider adding a front anti-roll bar only (or making the front bar thicker than the rear). If your car is understeering, consider adding a rear anti-roll bar only (or making the rear bar thicker than the front).
